720 in Hex

Decimal 720 in hex conversion provides the detailed information on what is the hex equivalent of (720)10, and the step-by-step work for how to convert the decimal (base-10) number 720 to its hex (base-16) equivalent.

(720)10 in hex is equal to:
(720)10 = (?)16

Perform successive MOD-16 operation for decimal 720, and mark the initial remainder as LSB and the final remainder as MSB as like the below.

MOD-16 of 720	720 / 16 = 45	Remainder is 0 → LSB
MOD-16 of 45	45 / 16 = 2	Remainder is 13
MOD-16 of 2	2 / 16 = 0	Remainder is 2 → MSB

Arrange the remainders of MOD-16 of 720 from MSB to LSB (2 13 0) and replace each remainders by the corresponding hex equivalent by referring the below table forms the equivalent hex number for decimal 720.

Decimal	1	2	3	4	5	6	7	8	9	10	11	12	13	14	15
Hex	1	2	3	4	5	6	7	8	9	A	B	C	D	E	F

Decimal 2 in hex is 2 → MSB
Decimal 13 in hex is D
Decimal 0 in hex is 0 → LSB

= 2D0
720₁₀ = 2D0₁₆

Hence,
720 in hex is 2D0

where,
720₁₀ is the given decimal number,
10 in 720₁₀ represents the base-10 or decimal number system,
2D0₁₆ is the hex equivalent of the decimal 720,
16 in 2D0₁₆ represents the base-16 or hexadecimal number system.

Important Notes: (720)10 in Hex
The below are some of the important notes to be remembered while converting the (base-10) decimal number 720 into a (base-16) hexadecimal equivalent.

1. The initial remainder of MOD-16 operation for 720 is a Least Significant Bit (LSB).
2. The last remainder of MOD-16 operation for 720 is a Most Significant Bit (MSB).
3. Arrange the reminders of mod-16 of 720 from MSB to LSB and replace each reminder by the corresponding hex equivalent forms the actual hex value of decimal 720.
